Finding The Right Data Recovery Services For Your Data Loss Situation

If use computers on a fairly regular basis, whether
it is at home or at work there is something that you need to know. Computers
are machines, and like all other machines, there is always a chance that
they can fail. And if they fail, that puts all of your valuable work related
data, or personal files at risk of being lost forever.

There is good news however. Data loss happens frequently
enough to make data recovery services a fairly huge industry. So the expertise
is out there should you need to get your data back, but it also means
that not all data recovery services are the same.

At Hard Disk Recovery Services, we believe that recovery
services should first and foremost put the clients mind at ease. We listen
to our clients and we have learned the importance of understanding the
situation that they are in. Data loss is a terrifying experience. In cases
where you have loss work related data, you may have lost months worth
of work with a multi-thousand dollar value. In some cases, it may even
cost you a client or even your job! And personal documents have a value
that goes beyond monetary, memories can’t be replaced!

As if the actual loss of data isn’t enough, many
of our clients have had to deal with data recovery companies whose only
concern was extorting as much money from them as possible. Clients typically
know nothing about the data recovery industry, are desperate to get their
data back, and are generally at the mercy of the recovery experts.

The following has actually occurred on a few occasions
to clients who have come to us after seeking the recovery services of
some of our competitors. What we learned was appalling. After his computer
would no longer boot, the client panicked and brought it in to the first
data recovery company that he contacted.

After being charged $80 just to “analyze”
the problem, without being told anything regarding what was wrong or the
likelihood of recovery, the customer was given an estimate somewhere in
the $400 range.

3 days later he got his hard drive back with most of
the contents intact – although most programs had to be reinstalled
and a number of actual work files were corrupted beyond use - the total
data recovery cost with initial assessment was $420. In most of these situations all
the customer feels that all he or she can do is bite the bullet and cut
their loses, vowing to make back-ups of all their files from then on.

But his ordeal was not over yet. 2 months later the
same thing happened again, and this time he brought his hard drive into
us. We discovered that the problem was not his hard drive, but his motherboard.
The motherboard was failing and was destroying his hard drive in the process.
So when he originally brought his hard drive into our competitor, his
hard drive didn’t actually need recovery services – it was
fine, as were all of his files, all he needed was a new motherboard.

Instead, that company charged him $420 to perform their
recovery services when it didn’t need to be done. And they did such
a poor job that he essentially paid $420 to have a number of his files
destroyed and all of his software installations disrupted. To make matters
worse, they sent him home with a ticking time bomb that would either happen
again, or destroy his hard drive completely. As it was, there were burn
marks visible on the hard drive where the motor had been spinning too
fast.

If you need recovery services, Hard Disk Recovery Services
advises you to shop around. After dealing with a few companies, you’ll
notice a major difference between attitudes and have a better idea of
who to choose. With that said, feel free to contact us. We’re confident
that our treatment of our customers, and the expertise that we display
will make us the obvious choice.
